The Rangers made major changes to their line combinations, which led to a decisive 5-2 victory against the Islanders.

Rangers were outshot 87-37 over the last two games, so Laviolette changed up his lines in preparation for Sunday's game against the Islanders.

You couldn’t say that the Rangers had grown moldy, not while going 7-2-1 in their first 10 games, even if relying on their elite goaltending tandem of Igor Shesterkin and Jonathan Quick way too much.
